@EarthboundBenjy I’m in exactly the same boat. Man this key card thing really sucks. I want to pick this up but it’s gonna have to be digital I suppose.
Yep, I've been on the lookout for this. Will preorder. I can't spend more than $20 on digital games anymore, just can't. Also hoping to see a physical for Fell Seal Arbiters Mark
This game was awesome, imo. I had so much fun with it. Yeah it was a collectathon, but it was so atmospheric, and each Kong really felt unique and fun. I hope they do a remaster and fix the camera! Probably wishful thinking
Also give me a break- these corporations act like they're looking out for poor people who can't afford video games. When what they're really saying is we aren't taking a pay cut, were gonna pass the costs of this on to the consumer.
Oh wow, I am so pleasantly surprised to see such a large amount of good comments on this- yeah, moving manufacturing from China stinks now (but only in terms of raising costs for us), but it's gonna happen sometime. And the rest of the world is going to benefit
The more the merrier. We as a game community need to send the message that physical media is what we want. We can't let these companies slip into digital only- they will try, because it's cheaper for them. But if you're paying money for a game, why wouldn't you want to have an actual cart? That you can resell, loan a friend, etc.
Will take it anyway I can get it- dragon quest is one of my all time favorite series. It's got so many dedicated fans in the West, wish square would try harder to publicize. Doesn't help that for example, IGN gives DQ11 absolutely no coverage in podcasts the week it's out, even on beyond
Nintendo life, you guys really could use a better comment section. One that shows conversations, like Reddit. When I'm scrolling on my phone, it's impossible to keep track of who and what they're responding to. Just a thought.
Great, I was holding off for this. Stinks that companies don't at least let you know about this before the digital release, so you can choose. Obviously happens because digital copies are cheaper for them.
Got it pre-ordered, gonna enjoy it on PS4. I love Nintendo, but all the switch ports upset me after supporting the Wii U. Picked up a PS4 and have been astounded at the quality and quantity, and all the games on sale.
I'm certainly not going to let a bunch of Eggheads tell me whether or not it's a disorder now. People can abuse anything, it says more about the person than the substance
Hmm, seems like they're asking themselves, "what is the smallest amount of new content we can add and still charge full price for a 'new' pokemon game".
Another Christian here- i actually thought spiritual warfare was a decent Zelda clone. Sure, a little dated and esoteric, but I enjoyed my time with it. Didn't play the other wisdom tree games
Just watched all four episodes. At the end of the first, and halfway through the second I wasn't sure, but kept watching and ended up thoroughly enjoying it. One of the best game to screen adaptations I've seen
So ONE Wii U game didn't live up to it's promised potential. After delivering the likes of splatoon, mario maker, smash, kart, 3d world, hyrule warriors, etc. ONE wii u game supposedly wasn't good. They probably realized it didn't matter if they made a good game, it's become so fashionable to bash nintendo and not support their systems. And the paid off gaming media in general are largely to blame.
I'm optimistic for this too. I think it's easy to forget that Nintendo is actually often at their best when they try new things. Hating on a game just because it changes things up or resembles a game that was unpopular is just silly. Judge it for how it looks (and is), and not by its baggage.
I had reservations about this game, because of reviews, so I passed for a long time. Then I got it as a gift, and man, I love this game. On new 3ds it runs great, has so much content, and the improvements to this version have been superb. Anyone on the fence should get this!!
@Geno-Breaker I'm not going to get in an argument, because waste of time. But in order to play smash 1v1 you basically have to strip the game of stages, items, custom moves, and everything else you don't like. Why do that? Why not play it as meant to be played? I don't really care that the competitive scene exists, for some that's valid. I just think it's silly. We don't play Mario kart one after another, only on certain stages, only on time trial mode, keeping track of times, do we? Of course not.
I'm amazed more people haven't embraced this type of thing yet. While smash works as a 1v1 I think it at it's best when more players and stages, etc. are involved. Sakurai would agree with me. If you want a competitive 1v1 fighter, why aren't you playing street fighter, which makes way more sense in that context.

Decomposing.
Re: Wizard Of Legend Receiving Magical Sky Palace Update Later This Year
I'm sure it's because I stink at games- but I find this one to be really hard. I can barely beat 3 levels of it. Maybe the game needs an easy mode...

Jrpgs are my bread and butter of gaming. Started Octopath tonight and already in love. So glad it's doing well! Now get Dragon Quest out here, Square!
Re: Nintendo Says Switch User Playtime Is Split 50-50 Between Docked And Handheld
Docked 75% of the time. It's actually a bit uncomfortable to hold as a handheld, I find. 3ds xl was way more comfortable for me
